The Art of Entertaining

June 25, 2026

The Berkeley, nestled between bustling Knightsbridge and leafy Belgravia, is the home of a new partnership created with the brilliant team behind this landmark five-star hotel, to offer a unique guest experience like no other.

United by a shared passion for convivial hosting, together we are reimagining room service as something more meaningful. Guests can transform the beautiful dining spaces of The Berkeley suites with their choice of tablescape and feast, designed to be shared, moving beyond the familiar image of a solitary club sandwich and towards something far more memorable.

A collection of five seasonal curated designs will be available, each inspired by The Berkeley and its surroundings. A bold green and white stripe reflects the nearby Royal Parks and gardens, while joyful floral illustrations celebrate the hotel’s renowned floristry. From larger gatherings to intimate suite moments, every setting has been considered, including our signature Summerill & Bishop heart design created especially for two.

The tablescapes are complemented by food and drink designed around togetherness, with sharing platters, specially crafted cocktails and a Berkeley Butler on hand to bring the experience to life.

Together, we created this menu with the belief that modern luxury is no longer simply just about what is served, but how something feels. In a world where everything is constantly seen and shared, true exclusivity can be found in the private moments kept just for those present. This dining experience offers a rare opportunity to step away from the outside world and create memories that belong only to you and your chosen guests.

At the heart of the project is the idea of elevating the private moment. Moving beyond simply dining in, and into something more atmospheric, more immersive.

To offer suite residents the ability to choose their own tablescape, is to give them authorship over moments that matter to them. Not just to host, but to shape the mood of the evening. It allows them to move beyond the expected rituals of hospitality and into something that feels entirely their own. Because the truth is, we remember how something felt long after the meal has ended.

With love,
Summerill & Bishop

The Berkeley x Summerill & Bishop ‘The Art of Entertaining’ service is now available across all suites in the hotel.
